Vaughan Metropolitan Centre is a subway station under construction on the extension of the western branch of the Yonge–University–Spadina line of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) in Vaughan, Ontario, Canada. It is located under Millway Avenue on the north side of Highway 7, west of Jane Street, and is one of two new stations that are outside the City of Toronto in York Region. It is expected to open in 2016 when the extension of the line is finished. The TTC has not decided how this will affect fare pricing; TTC bus riders are now required to pay extra fare when their bus crosses Steeles. However, in 1968, five subway stations opened inside the TTC's "fare 2" region at the time (Islington, Royal York, Old Mill, Victoria Park and Warden), yet no extra fare was required to reach those stations. Geographically, this will be the northernmost station in the system. ==Description== On 27 November 2009 the ground-breaking ceremony was held for the Spadina Extension, and major tunnelling operations began in June 2011. The original project schedule expected the completion by 2015 but that is now delayed to autumn 2016-2018.〔() TYSSE Schedule Status Update〕 Grimshaw Architects have been retained to design the station, which will have a domed ovoid entrance building just north of the Viva platforms on Highway 7. The building will have four entrances in an X pattern; these will be the only entrances at the station's opening, but knockout panels are planned for future underground access to the station from evolving development (including a future YRT bus terminal).〔(TTC Report ) December 16, 2009〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (TTC)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
